[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No restrictions. The quicker they eat it, the quicker it's gone. The only rule is that for every wrapper I find laying around instead of being thrown away, I take a piece. That helps reduce the volume a little. [/quote] Same. A bunch gets sent with lunches to share with friends, and I turn a blind eye (wink, wink) when they take the bowl upstairs during playdates. We leave the bowl out on the counter and they know that the trade off for having it available is that others may take some as well. DH has a bigger sweet tooth than the kids, so the bowl gets depleted pretty quickly. They lose interest once all of the good stuff is gone, then I put it in the cupboard and inevitably find some sad rejected pieces in the spring. That said, my kids self-regulate sweets pretty well. If it was a bowl full of cheez-its and goldfish, they wouldn't stop eating until the bowl was empty. Then I'd have to ration.[/quote]
